WARNING

apiviz-frontend is only the frontend of the APIVIZ application, it only works if and only if the apiviz-backend is correctly installed first.

Data views

Apiviz is a CMS for datavisualisation website, so it includes various rendering views for your data. Apiviz allows to display several datasets.

For each of you dataset you will be able to view your data as :

- a list of items (your data) ;
- a detailed view for each item ;
- a map view for your geolocalized data ;

All views share a common search navbar with :

- plain text search ; 
- filters ;

All of the above is customizable from the Apiviz’s back office.

All of the above is customizable from the Apiviz’s back office.
